I got ripped off by this guy named Emiliano Rippa, 23 years old, in West Los Angeles (Sepulveda Palms).
I gave him $500 and got 2 jackets. (when he showed me there were 3 jackets, but when i came home and opened the bag, there were only 2. He probably saved 1 when i went to the bank to get the money)
It was exactly the same story as others described.
But probably different guy, because the one i met was
about 6'1" with curly hair.
I had memorized the license plate number and remembered that it was from Dollar Rental Car. So i called the Dollar Rental car to verify. First, they wouldn't give any information for privacy, but i lied that i got into an accident with this car. And i found out that all the information, incl. License plate number, name, returned date (the date i got ripped off) were correct.
So it's not a good idea to track them with the car because they are really driving rental cars. The one he was driving was chrysler 300m.
I called the police, but the police said they can't do anything about it since i litterally handed the money to him. So i just let go the memory of him.
BUT I MET HIM AGAIN TODAY. He approached to me
on the same street i met him the first time. I recognized him and went near his car. I tried to open the door, but it was locked, then he recognized and ran away. This time, he was driving a Chrysler PT Cruiser.
